The NY Giants had several names appear on the NFL’s voting results for the 2022 NFL Pro Bowl.

The NY Giants’ 2021 season has been another year from hell for New York.

Despite the massive disappointment this season has been, the Giants have multiple players available to vote for to send to the 2022 Pro Bowl. Surprisingly, several NY Giants are among the top vote getters.

Last season, the NY Giants sent James Bradberry and Evan Engram to the Pro Bowl. This year, there are numerous options to select from and vote for in 2022.

The Giants currently have four players in the NFL’s top-10 Pro Bowl fan voting part.

Leonard Williams has 5.5 sacks and is 10th overall in the NFL for p=defensive tackle votes and 5th overall in the NFC.

Xavier McKinney’s breakout season has garnered him some serious attention and respect all around the league. McKinney’s 5 interceptions are top-5 in the NFL and he’s currently the 5th most-voted safety along with the 2nd safety in the NFC right now.

Elsewhere, the NY Giants’ special teams have been recognized despite their constant struggles with the special units all year long. But, core special teamer Cam Brown is one of the most unique and top players at the gunner position in the entire NFL. He’s 10th in the league for special teams votes and 6th overall in the NFC.

Lastly, Graham Gano has slightly dropped off from his hot start this season. Gano was the #1 kicker for NFC votes earlier this season but he’s fallen behind Younghoe Koo in the NFC and 7th overall for the whole league.

While it’s not much, it’s always nice to see players get individual honors for their play. Amidst another losing season in New York, it’s one of the few bright spots of this roster.
